Counting
to Christmas
by
Nancy Tafuri
Review by: Jacqueline
Kilmer
“Counting
to Christmas” is a colorful and cheerful
story of a child waiting for the big day to arrive. It covers
numbers 1 to 25 (from December 1 to 25!).
It also gives children ideas to keep them occupied while they are
waiting.
If
you are tired of hearing “ when, when, when”
this book is for you. Included in the back of the book are recipes
for some of the activities. You
can make cards, string popcorn , bake cookies and feed the birds.
The main focus of the
story is on giving to others , a nice change of pace when
our society mostly focuses on the “gimmees” of the season.
I
recommend this story to be read to the
3 to 5 age group. Older
children will be able to read it themselves.
All children will love making
the projects in the back of the book .
You will have peace and quiet for a few minutes.
And then you can all clean up the mess!
